Message-ID: <238@icus.UUCP> Date: 30 Jan 88 19:06:17 GMT Organization: ICUS Computer Group, Islip, NY Lines: 26 I have several news feeds that call me to receive news and send/receive all the mail (since it is a toll call). I have logins on those machine where I can send mail to and receive queued mail, if need be. Now there becomes a little complicated where I want to send some mail out fast and not wait to be polled, but there is about 200K+ news queued up as well. Is there a protocol where I can call them only for sending mail and not for news (since I would rather not pay for the phone costs to send all that news). I am running HDB (HoneyDanBer) UUCP and the Permissions file gives you extensive capabilities, but the one I explain above isn't quite outlined in the manuals. There must be a way? :-) All you UUCP gurus out there must have some answers, Lenny -- ============================ US MAIL: Lenny Tropiano, ICUS Computer Group IIIII CCC U U SSSS PO Box 1 I C C U U S Islip Terrace, New York 11752 I C U U SSS PHONE: (516) 968-8576 [H] (516) 582-5525 [W] I C C U U S AT&T MAIL: ...attmail!icus!lenny TELEX: 154232428 IIIII CCC UUU SSSS UUCP: ============================ ...{uunet!godfre, harvard!talcott}!\ ...{ihnp4, boulder, mtune, bc-cis, ptsfa, sbcs}! >icus!lenny "Usenet the final frontier" ...{cmcl2!phri, hoptoad}!dasys1!/
